Under One Person: Please Call Me Golden Flash

Chapter 303 Things are going to change
The dull thud of Jiang Kun's knees hitting the floor tiles echoed in the deathly silent corridor.

Cold sweat dripped down his contorted jaw, and his throat bobbed but he couldn't utter a single word.

Zhao Zhen looked down at him as if he were a pebble blocking her way.

"Young Master Jiang? Can I take a look at the order form you have? If it's really an emergency, how about I personally handle this order for you?"

Upon hearing those words, Jiang Kun broke out in a cold sweat.

"Chairman Zhao, I was wrong. I didn't know it was you, Chairman Zhao, who was visiting in person, so that's why..."

"It's alright, ignorance is no excuse, I don't blame you. Here, give me the form."

As he spoke, Zhao Zhen smiled and waved.

"Chairman Zhao, I..."

Jiang Kun gritted his teeth. He knew he absolutely could not hand over this order.

If he doesn't pay, his private deals using the company's connections and resources will have to be investigated slowly, and during this investigation, his father will have the opportunity to make his own moves.

But if you hand it over now, this form will immediately become a "death warrant"!
Thinking of this, Jiang Kun also began to quietly mobilize the true qi within his body, attempting to burn the order in his hand.

But Jiang Kun was ultimately too naive. With Zhao Zhen's cultivation and experience, if he could let someone like Jiang Kun successfully pull off these little tricks right under his nose, he might as well just find a block of tofu and smash his head against it.

Just as Jiang Kun's palm was flaming, he only saw a black shadow flash by, and the next moment, the order that was just in his hand was already in Zhao Zhen's hand.

"So fast!!!"

Jiang Kun's pupils contracted sharply; he hadn't even seen how Zhao Zhen made his move!
Ahead, Zhao Zhen first examined the document in his hand with great interest, and then casually handed it to Zhou Zhengyang beside him.

"Keep it and hand it over to the investigators sent from headquarters."

"Yes, Chairman Zhao, what should he do?"

"Let's put them under custody for now."

Zhou Zhengyang beckoned, and two of his entourage silently stepped forward and lifted Jiang Kun, whose face was ashen and whose body was like a rotten mud.

The exquisite silk robe ripped apart under the rough dragging, and all traces of its previous arrogance vanished.

Twenty minutes later, inside the meeting room.

At the end of the long table, Jiang Shouyi, the head of the Jiangsu branch who had rushed over, had sweat stains soaking through his graying temples.

He tried to force a respectful smile, but having been used to being a "local tyrant" for the past few years, his muscles, stiff as stone, were completely unaccustomed to smiling at others.

"Chairman Zhao, my son was ignorant and impudent..."

"The collision is a minor matter."

Zhao Zhen waved his hand, tapping his fingertips on the table. Each tap struck Jiang Shouyi's tense nerves.

"What I want are the remnants of the Quanxing sect who attacked and killed the Sanyi Sect last night. The list is here..."

A thin piece of paper slid across the table, revealing the names: Liu Hao, the Mountain Eagle; Wu Laoliu, the Poisonous Scorpion Hand; Qian San, the Smiling Buddha…

Jiang Shouyi glanced at the list, his fingers twitching nervously, as if it were not paper but a red-hot branding iron.

"Chairman Zhao, please understand..."

His throat was dry, and his voice was deliberately hoarse.

"The situation at the East City Wharf is indeed special now. As news of Wugensheng's appearance in Zhenjiang has spread, various factions have become deeply entrenched."

Acting rashly might alert the enemy, and if... if capturing these Quanxing demons alerts Wugensheng, that would be disastrous.

In my opinion, it would be better to plan carefully, organize the strategy thoroughly, and ensure a decisive blow…

Snapped!
Before Jiang Shouyi could finish speaking, the thin list was slammed heavily onto the smooth mahogany table by a hand with distinct knuckles.

The sound exploded in the excessively quiet conference room, making everyone's heart skip a beat.

"Jiang Shouyi..."

Zhao Zhen leaned forward slightly, his face showing no anger, only a calm that seemed to have been tempered by ice.

"Let's take it a long time?" He drawled out the last syllable, his tone carrying a hint of playful scrutiny.

"Should we start by discussing your son's misappropriation of company resources for private deals? Or should we start by discussing your Jiangsu branch's double-dealing with the headquarters' arrest warrant?"

Jiang Shouyi's face turned deathly pale, his lips trembled, and he could no longer utter a single word.

Cold sweat trickled down the back of my neck and into my collar, feeling icy and sticky.

"Does mobilizing manpower require meticulous planning?"

Zhao Zhen slowly stood up, his tall figure casting an invisible pressure over Jiang Shouyi at the end of the long table.

"I bet you're the one plotting in your head how to 'meticulously plan' to let those people on the list 'get wind of it in time' and run away ahead of time, aren't you?"

"No! Chairman Zhao! I would never dare!"

Jiang Shouyi jumped up in alarm, the chair legs scraping against the floor with a screeching noise, almost as if he were swearing to the heavens.

"The loyalty of subordinates to the company..."

"Whether you are loyal or not, just check the accounts you've handled over the years and your son's 'private deals' and you'll know."

Zhao Zhen interrupted him impatiently, her eyes sharp as knives.

"The people from headquarters are already on their way."

Jiang Shouyi's vision went black, his legs went weak, and he almost collapsed if he hadn't been supporting himself on the table.

He then realized that from the moment Zhao Zhen stepped through that door, the swift and decisive action had already begun.

The so-called "undercover visit" was nothing more than a pretext to lower his and his cronies' guard!

What Zhao Zhen needed was never persuasion, but rather solid evidence and an excuse to wipe them all out!

If it were anyone else, given Jiang Shouyi's personality, he would never sit idly by and wait to die; he would most likely fight to the death with the other party!

But it was Zhao Zhen who arrived, the founder of Na Du Tong, the famous "Jin Xiao Lei Jun"!
Faced with such an existence, how could Jiang Shouyi possibly have the will to resist?
"As for now..."

Zhao Zhen stopped looking at Jiang Shouyi, whose face was ashen, and turned her gaze to Zhou Zhengyang, who was standing solemnly to the side.

"Zhou Zhengyang".

"My subordinate is here!"

Zhou Zhengyang straightened his back and responded loudly.

"Until Jiang Shouyi's situation is clarified, you will temporarily assume the position of manager of the Jiangsu branch and exercise all management authority."

Zhao Zhen spoke in a steady, unwavering manner, leaving no room for doubt.

Zhao Zhen's prestige within Nadutong is evident in his ability to dismiss a branch manager with a single sentence, without anyone questioning the appropriateness of his actions.

"I'll give you two hours. Mobilize everyone you can to blockade all the water and land routes in Zhenjiang, with a focus on the eastern dock."

Arrest people according to this list! We need to see them alive or dead!

"Yes, Chairman Zhao!"

A glint flashed in Zhou Zhengyang's eyes, and his long-suppressed passion ignited instantly.

Without hesitation, he stepped forward, grabbed the list on the table bearing Zhao Zhen's handprint, turned and left, his steps firm and powerful.

Zhao Zhen's voice rang out behind him, coldly adding: "Anyone who disobeys orders, slacks off, or secretly communicates information will be dismissed and never rehired!"

"Yes!"

These four words echoed clearly in the silent conference room like ice beads falling onto a jade plate.

The mid-level managers from the Jiangsu branch present were all speechless with fear and trembling.

They knew that the world in Zhenjiang had completely changed...
